It is in three Baroque-style movements, each structured for effective use of the antiphonally placed instruments:
- Procession, Allegro, 4/4.
- Chaconne, a kind of continuous theme and variations in a moderately slow 3/4.
- Dance, Allegro 3/4 time; almost, but not quite a Gigue.
- Version 1: 3 trumpets, 3 French horns, 3 trombones, tuba, Organ.
- Version 2: 4 trumpets, 3 trombones, tuba, organ
